Prawn Satay (Sate udang)

(Prawn Satay)

Sate udang is a traditional dish that's also popular in Singapore. The dish consists of marinated prawns that are placed on bamboo skewers and grilled to perfection. The paste for the marinade usually consists of oil, lime juice, coriander, garlic, shallots, lemongrass, ginger, chili peppers, turmeric, dark sugar, soy sauce, and kecap manis.


Once skewered, the prawns are grilled on both sides until just cooked through. Sate udang is often served with scallions, cucumbers, and pineapple pieces. If desired, coconut milk can also be added to the marinade before cooking.
